Since 1986, Antec has been developing and manufacturing quality computer cases and power supplies. An Antec full tower was the first case I used to build a gaming system, and because the build quality of the case was so high it was able to last through many updates, finally getting retired after 10 years of use!

The subject of this review is Antec's Gaming Series One case; a budget friendly mid-tower case launched earlier in 2012 that includes many features that are usually found only on the higher end enthusiast cases. These features include a USB 3.0 internal connection, tool-less drive installation, cable management refinements, a painted interior, and a large CPU cutout on the motherboard tray. For a case that sells for less than $50 (US), there is a good amount of value added features!

Before taking a closer look at the case provided for review, let's take a look at some of the features and specifications taken from the official product page on the Antec website.
